Joe's QB rating is like 107 at home and mid-50s on the road. We put up about half the points and half the yards on the road as we do at home. It's a "Thing" for us, unfortunately.

On the plus side, that means that in a weak AFC year like this year, where 11-5 or 12-4 will guarantee you at least one home playoff game, and maybe home field throughout, having a team that is unbeatable at home and 50/50 on the road is a good formula to make the dance.

My motto was always to keep swinging. Whether I was in a slump or feeling badly or having trouble off the field, the only thing to do was keep swinging. -Hank Aaron

True, if we are almost unbeatable at home and win like half our games on the road, that's actually the script for "good" teams these days. It's just a shame when what makes you good at home can't travel with you!

Awful tackling...

Although Walsh's system of offense can compensate for lack of talent; however, defense is a different story. According to Walsh, talent on defense was essential and could not be compensated for. What did Walsh do in 1981? He acquired physical and talented players on defense.
